Round Wire
Wire drawing is an operation to produce wire of various sizes within certain specific tolerances. The process involves reducing the diameter of rods or wires by passing them through a series of wire drawing dies with each successive die having smaller bore diameter than the one preceding it. The final wire size is reached as the wire passes through the last die in the series.

Profile Wire
Wire rolling is a process in which round wire passes through 4 oiled rolls in a machine which press together and imprint a shape into the wire which is then pulled round a capstan. As the wire passes through the rolls it forces the rolls to turn and imprint the wire throughout the whole cycle of the roll.
